Beyond the Law

Globally, business models are changing and becoming more complex. The global economic crisis and the tightened regulatory environment that followed in its wake have shifted how businesses make decisions and operate. A company’s chief legal advisor, its General Counsel (GC), is playing a greater role in these decisions and in helping to shape the organization’s strategy and achieve its corporate objectives.

Our Canadian survey [PDF 2.12MB] followed KPMG's global study of GC that provided a thorough review of where GCs believe their legal departments are headed. In this report we discuss the results of our Canadian survey within the context of, and in comparison to, our global study [PDF 2.25MB].
